[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sosquidtaste:
I'm afraid I can't remember the sources where I read it, but I believe on the Nexus S a major reason for the lack of SD slot was to make room for the NFC chip (module? doodad?).

I hated the decision then, but there was literally nothing I could possibly use NFC with on my Nexus S. At least ICS has Beam baked into it, and Google Wallet appears to be slowly crawling out into the real world. However, I still can't say that I'm thrilled about no SD slot :\

I wonder if any of that will change once I am able to physically handle a Galaxy Nexus, though.

16 gigs is more than enough for me.

I stream everything and have unlimited data.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TiltedAz:
The walls are closing in. This guy thought he had a grandfathered AT&T unlimited data plan.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericshmerick:
Meh, my usage is usually around 2 gigs, so they shouldn't care. I just don't like the idea of fearing a data ceiling.

Besides, there are millions still on unlimited data. Your link is one angry nerd out of millions.

I don't tether and am not concerned. Plus I'm Premier and part of a business line.

They know better than to jack with my plan.

Bottom line is this guy "occasionally tethered" which is explicitly against the TOS. He deserved what he got. You just can't tether on the grandfathered plan, simple. If you do, even once, you will get caught and you will loose that plan.

Not that hard to comprehend.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shenye:
ICS has USB host support....$25 for a 32GB usb driver is fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TiltedAz:
No doubt he isn't the sharpest tool in the shed. He had some basis for AT&T to work with him. They offered him the option to keep the unlimited plan as long as he didn't tether again. He declined that option.

In any event, carriers all reserve the right to change terms of their data programs. Unlimited plans are marketing ploys. Sprint is talking about backing out of their unlimited data plan and they will not honor existing contracts.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
This is true. I'm not worried at all - i use my sgs without ext sdcard. I prefer internal storage, and 16gb is more than enough. although i spend most of my time flashing stuff (which is why i'm getting the device), usb host will certainly be a nice feature.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] voxigenboy:
Granted no microSD support is one thing, but am also sad that 32GB is the biggest size offered. Yeah, yeah... 'cloud'... I do a ton of driving around and connect my phone to my stereo playing music regularly. Not to mention I also use it to listen to music at the gym and when I'm riding my mountain bike. Come to think of it, 90%+ of my phone usage is music. I like to keep as much of it as possible on the phone ready to go. I don't like the Google Music interface(prefer just a simple folder view) & don't want to wait for a song to load. I want to instantly switch songs on the fly and for them to start playing immediately.

Regardless, the 32GB version is my only option + I'm only using the phone until April anyway when I get my $400 deposit back & going to get a quad-core phone then.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmedfq2002:
Hi Guys, I've been waiting for the HC, anxiously for a long time now, but some how I still can't see it being available on my SGT 10.1. I bought mine from Canada but now I have it here in Finland (it should not make any difference), but thought I'd mention it.

My model No :- GT-P7510

Build No: HMJ37.XXKG6 P7510XXKG6

I've had my Tab for a few months now, and love it. Its rooted but haven't loaded any custom Roms. I know that I can use the CWM to flash the many optimized HC 3.2 ROMS out there, but I wanted to know why I am unable to see the 3.2 update OTA or using Kies. I just get a message that no updates are available, and I am running the latest version. I tried searching for the issue, but it seems not many ppl have this problem.

This is getting annoying, so if anyone has any ideas, please let me know (I am getting desperate :confused:). I was thinking of Fac reseting the device, and creating another samsung account (maybe). What do you all think. But I dont want to screw up the tab, by messing around too much, so any help would be appreciated, thanks :)

Does anybody have any idea when the Samsung apps like Samsung remote will be updated so they work on the GN ?

Thanks Ross
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Probably not until the next version of Samsung's TouchWiz comes out with ICS on their other devices. Otherwise they have no incentive to update them to work on ICS because they won't have any devices running it.

Samsung isn't in charge of the apps on this device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RossM7:
If I managed to get the apk for the app do you think it would work ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Sure you could try but theres no guarantee it works as it should.

But like I said above you're never going to get these apps officially supported on these devices. The software comes from Google, not Samsung (unlike a SGSII, for example, which gets TouchWiz).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tjotte:
You can download samsung remote free from market
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RossM7:
You can't if you are running ics it does not appear. If someone has a link to the apk that would be brilliant
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
Most of those Samsung apps require touchwiz, thus will FC out of the box.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RossM7:
This app can't require touchwiz I used to have it on my Desire HD
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
Not all, I was referring to the replacement apps that come bundled with touchwiz and some of the additional apps included.

I'll be getting this phone with in the next month, but I was curious what outlets you guys are aware of that are selling the phone.

I saw it on amazon 2 weeks ago for $900.00. Today its around $700, but I wanted to know if you guys knew of anywhere with even better deals.

It's a long shot I know, but I figure it is worth asking. Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Bryce2010:
I would like to know this too. Seems the 'Hands Down Cheapest Place to Buy' thread is dead :(

Every day I scour XDA, Google, Ebay, etc looking for prices. I'm in Canada. With taxes,etc I think I'm looking at about $800 more or less (can anyone confirm that?). I think after Christmas I may go for this price but ideally I'm looking to pay about $700 more or less total. Then I'm worried about screen issues or a dead pixel which happened with the Nexus One I ordered from the States so I don't really want to ship it back overseas if this happens which it may judging by other threads...

So I'm looking for it to come down about another $100 but dont know if/when this will happen.

And ideally would like it to be released in Canada or even the US so I don't have to get it shipped which may lower that cost? But don't know if or when that will happen.

Then there is the fear that Samsung will discontinue it and I'll never get one or the prices will shoot up or something? :eek:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] MinionOfEckerd:
http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php/5504/samsung-galaxy-note--16gb--sim-free-unlocked-

About $670 without VAT. From what I've seen in other threads, it doesn't apply if you're outside the EU. I think that might take the cake as the cheapest?

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax...RDX6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322262246&sr=8-1

Also Amazon has a couple different sellers with the SGN in stock. Around low 700-750s. Most of these are in the US which would be better in case of a defect.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] cushcalc:
I ordered mine from HandTec when they had it listed briefly for £418.99 plus £14.99 shipping, for a total of £433.98, (which PayPal converted to $697.46), but HandTec has put the price back to £434.90 + shipping since I ordered. May still be the best price, however.

OTOH, Amazon now has a Prime 2-day shipping seller for $739. I'd pay the extra $40 or so bucks to have Amazon peace of mind if I had seen a price that good 4 days ago.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Techvir:
The new issue with handtec is that fedex will charge you 30 $ 1-2weeks after u get the phone :mad:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Bryce2010:
So because I'm in Canada I'm looking at around $800

But if I was in the US or UK I'd be looking at around $700

Hands Down Cheapest...

Well I still think Clove.co.uk is the best place to buy at this time simply because they're including a matching Samsung OEM Flip Case free! Also, being a commodity and having the price fluxuate by the hour (literally) keep checking MobileCityOnline.com too!

These two places at one point during the day can hit anywhere from $699 - $729 at the absolute lowest. But keep in mind Clove.co.uk INCLUDES the free Samsung OEM Flip Case. For some that's a deal maker plus most other outlets are selling this same flip case for $65 on average.

That is why if you catch Clove on the lower end of price fluxuation it's such a good deal. You won't go wrong choosing either one of these retailers that's the good news. The only possible bad news is at what price you'll end up paying for your Note.

Anyway you do it - your going to LOVE THIS PHABLET! :cool:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Funkym0nkey:
By far cheapest place to buy this phone is from India.

You get this phone for about US$ 615-620 range which includes official Samsung flip cover in the package.

If there is significant interest from people in states or UK, some of you guys can get in touch with some ebay.in sellers with good reputation and request him for shipping quote and get him to create a special thread for you guys.

Last time around with SGS2 couple of my mates from US requested a seller from ebay india this way and got him to create a private listing for them and got their SGS2.

Or if you guys trust someone from India around here in these forums, get him to purchase phones and paypal the funds to him.

Note is significantly cheaper here than anywhere else from what I have seen online.

that is a very expensive contract.

Especially taking into account the low amount of minutes and data you get.

Also paying £200 for the phone on top of the £720 is a big slap in the face...

return it and get a 'bigger' contract for less and also only pay a max. of £50 for handset

How far does your phone boot-up?

Do you still see something on your screen?

Does the LED still light up (when connected to the charger/USB)?

If you haven't killed the boot-loader you should be able to recover the device with Flashtool ... if the boot-loader is dead I think there's no easy way to resurrect it.

Of course the unsolved question is if it would need a intact kernel as well AND if custom kernels actually support "Flash mode".

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
Well, that's exactly from where Vlackrs and I already recovered our phones after a bad flash ("stuck at the Sony Ericsson logo").

Start Flashtool and select "Check drivers".

If it turns out as "OK" on all three checks it seems you have the drivers installed already.

If not ... try to install Gordon's Gate (should be included with Flashtool and called "ggsetup.exe").

Follow the instructions I wrote up here to restore the device.

Note that I did NOT use Flashtool 0.5 as 0.5.0.0, 0.5.0.1 and 0.5.0.2 failed to recognize the device (and yes, I replaced the "E15.properties" with the files posted in the Flashtool thread in the Development section) - Flashtool 0.2.9.1 did the trick for us.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSniperFan:
It's because they use different processors. Look, the Nexus One and the Nexus S both have their CPU's clocked at 1GHz. However, the Nexus S outperforms the Nexus One. The actual performance is the result of more than just the raw speed of the processor.

Just like the megapixels don't tell you s**t about the actual image-quality.

This is just a general explanation and I can't tell you if or how much better the international version is.
